#ramblerrally is today. Help support the College of Arts and Sciences at Loyola. For example, the Undergraduate Summer Research Experience provides stipends for students working directly with faculty on a research project. I'll have a student working with me this summer.
Today the National Public Housing Museum broke ground on renovating the surviving building of the Jane Addams Homes (1938). A great day for a visionary cultural institution with a vital mission. Congrats to Sunny Fisher, Lisa Lee, and Francine Washington. #NPHM

Terrific bike tour of Chicago Latinx murals today, part of @NewberryLibrary programming on Latin American Revolutions. Eduardo Arocho is a wealth of knowledge, with 27 years of doing tours on Puerto Rican history in Humboldt Park.
